Sigh…
One may be born into the royal family. Status could be inherited but etiquette. Oh, etiquette was meant to be learned. When the b*****d prince was just going to impose Lilith to eat her plate and follow Lina Yue’s example… well, just a look at the elder sister discouraged him to even mention the 20 year-old princess. It would take a few years for Lina Yue to learn proper manners and less than two hours to apply or put in practice etiquette.
Yes, etiquette could be learned. Fraya trained as an assassin would have easily picked up on certain details and pick up the right utensil to use for her meal.
There were a lot of improper things happening at the table. Holding on to his fork and knife he watched Lina Yue acting like a three year-old again, neglecting everything that was taught. Vaguely amused but discouraged, he shook his head. Lina Yue’s teacher would have died on a heart attack if the wo/man saw this today.
“Lilith, I have been here for a while now. You were too charmed by our guests to even notice me.” There was a hint of disappointment in his voice; after all, other than Fraya, Lilith was the first one he approached when he entered the dinning room.
Nathaniel listened to Fraya’s moment of innocence, and the native medical practitioner spoke with his… strange sense of humour. A great contrast in two conversations that clearly depicted who were too young to be at the table who shouldn’t be at the table at all. “Don’t be silly,” Nathaniel quickly interjected and planted a quick kiss on the top Lilith of head, half-listening to her. Bless his beloved sister for not being the biggest talker sometimes; otherwise, he would have been caught red-handed for not being the most attentive older brother. “I will be there the morrow but I cannot promise on the following days. I would like to see you with other people just as I--Lina Wait!”
That girl! There was no such thing as control with her. “Fraya there is no need to go after her,” he continued just in case the female assassin wanted to tail her. “We have to start treating you as a guest and suitor from now on instead. Leave the task to someone else. Lilith, let us not put the chefs’ efforts to waste? Otherwise, you will need the strength to wake up early and tend the garden. Mother would be proud of you but still worried if you do not finish you plate.”
He looked up to Gillian as the man took away the plates. “Gillian, send my regards to the kitchen staff. It was delicious. So was Carver's pinapple dessert.” He placed the napkin on the table and gave a hug to Lilith. After a court nod and a few words of courtesy, Nathaniel excused himself from the table at his turn. On his way out, he dismissed Hollyanne from her duties and requested her to accompany him. He spent the remainder of the night finishing up his paperwork in the company of the insomniac ex-guard. After all, he did promise the youngest sibling that he would be doing some gardening in the morning with her.
